contrails streak the sky.
vaporous cotton
left by silver dots in a hurry.
my mind takes flight, but
my feet are grounded.
Form: Tanka


Veil

wispy dawn rising
ethereal flute of light
lances the vaporous shroud

spiderweb glistens
an intricately woven
and intangible beauty

vaporous cotton left by
silver dots going
somewhere, my mind takes flight but
my feet are stuck to the ground

Premium Member Vaporous Mornings

Mornings are the BEST
a fresh start
who says the universe is cruel?

Yesterday’s mistakes
gone like vaporous nothings..
well, the small ones anyway.

My Rain

I scream in silence
and dream in wails
I state my case in words
that faintly weep
They wade discoloured 
in my
vaporous soul,
Untouched my rain
thus gently falls

Transparent

Standing
under
an unjust moon
unable
   to move
from this
lurking mood
   of alone

no shadow
   cast by
this vaporous
form
reflecting nothing
   nothing
but empty
heart drained and
dust
   dry

Shadow in the penumbra

She moves catlike
her ebony braid
swishing majestic
in pearly moonlight
and vaporous penumbra.
Raising a chalice
jade and bejewelled
the lithe shadow
samples golden droplets
of honeyed wine
anointed silently
at a feast
of grace.

Premium Member Knitting the Brume

Light streams manipulate vaporous violin strings
meandering about open casements;
flantando melodies float, dream bridged sighs.
At table, coffee steam rises, knitting the brume,
hooding her sorrow pricked eyes.

My Abc's In 2007

Aberrant
Blind Bushs'
Crude callous
Debauched democracy,
Elevating
Fabricated facts
Garnering grizzly
Hell
In Iraq.
Jaundiced justified
Killing
Myriad
Numbers
Of other
People,
Quickly
Reassuring
Safety
To those
United ultras'
Vaporous vapid
World with

Second Hand

Toxic haze curling thickly
In your lungs, my name
Exhaled, dripping in smoke.
An escape of breath, another drag.
Your lips on mine, regret,
The flavor of the night.
Smokey and bitter
And filling my lungs.
On the verge of emotion,
You pull away, eyes glazed,
My soul following, vaporous,
Thin and second hand.

Premium Member A Personal Fog

A stinging mist colors my eyes
with vaporous pall of regret.
Oh, if only i could concede
and let the sun rays dissipate
this nebulous mentality
stealthily invading mind, heart,
a gray impasse of reluctance
that obliterates the future.

Black Blancmange

Viscid,
      Black,
           Highly spoonable.

Floating,
        Submerged,
                 Gellid pieces.

Flotsam,
       Jetsam,
             Relics of life?

Putrescent,
          Vaporous,
                  Motifs of death.

Ubiquitous,
          Ignored,
                 Feast for vultures.

Premium Member Nothing Lasts Forever

Her sensual walk can sway
with a subtle movements art
Her vision led me astray
heated and blistered my heart
Burning lips from hunger's abyss
melts away love's vaporous form
And expels each breathless kiss
upon trembling skin so warm
Tomorrow is a cold disguise
worn by my lonely eyes

La Fiamma

Her hair, radiant sun yellow,
infused with vaporous blue-violet,
tipped with the softness of orange flame.
Her warmth fills the room as she dances,
mesmerizing, alive, untamed.
La Fiamma—
a beautiful, dangerous companion,
her touch igniting plank and passion.
Now face to face,
her breath is hot, enticing, so inviting.
Not too close, she is fire.

Verdant slopes from afar~
Velvety plains enclave
Versatile soil beneath
Vaporous calm crater
Violent when active
Venomous lava flows
Vexing living things near.

Asthma Plus Miasma

A student battling with Asthma
And vaporous Miasma
Wouldn't he pack up Charisma?
Soon, confront the sure dilemma
Of suspending his Diploma 
Or sniffing Hard Work's aroma...

Espy I do Anathema,
Its picture clearest cinema:
A man from a great deal barred
And a future that might be marred...

Worse than malfunctional plasma 
Bad Asthma plus Bad Miasma!

Blessed Day Qd

It was no propitious day it seemed
The misty rain overlong prevailed
A feeble sun, time to time had gleamed
Through vaporous  clouds on landscape veiled
I made my farewells to friends no more
And took to the streets now dark and damp
My life uncertain no pathway sure
I lingered under a dim street lamp
That instant saw it would all be right

Majesty
is how the river pours
free from gravity the water falls

sitting still
where carved rocks are quiet
listening to the bubbling roars

to be cleansed
by a vaporous mist
that lays upon the soul in silence

wonder stirs
beneath vibrant sky's kiss
where peaceful dreams and I come to merge

Petals

in between the petals where the sweetness lays
moisture forms like condensation on glass from humidity
joy lingers by the candles glow, long into the night
with lunar beams come the dream--half reality, half fantasy
I wake at dawn, stretch and yawn, languid in your arms
knowing that when you slip into this vaporous mist
I'll catch you when you fall
I'll catch you when you fall

Shady Jedi Mind Tricks

Wherefrom poetry shades recall,
and the other side of yesterday
is but a dreamt hallucination,
can't see the foliage from trees'
darkly forested boundaries,
insofar as frivolous moonbeams 
agitate sun's glorified imagism 
'midst hues of baubled madness
& vaporous sentiments are replete
within day-trippers' remote motives,
shadowing delusional chicanery
of rosé-tinted Jedi mind tricks

Burn Your Memory Down

Lost in a dark vaporous pit
Suffocating in the fumes of you
After you went up in flame
I tried to extinguish you for good
Still you hang around 
Like a broken parachute
Trapped on a tree limb
What does it matter
We won't be taking off 
Or crash-landing ever again
In the vast and vacuous
Space which is your soul
I have been too many times
I'm climbing out now
I think I've seen the light

Resilient Night

Flight of the vaporous clouds,
moving at speeds unfathomable—
like these thoughts...
entangled in dead branches
longing to be free—lusting after
the deep blue of the night sky—
trying—flying.

I flee not from my sorrows,
I flee not from you,
my love...
I fly in these vapors,
entranced by change.

I believe our souls caress
Transformations
in every fullness and waning
of the resilient night.

The Grand Old Lady

One hundred year’s young.
The
grand old lady
lying still
in the blackness
of time.

Her great hull
standing silent
weeping for
its precious
cargo.

Shivering vaporous forms
of first class and steerage.
Stroll hand in hand
together to the
surging currents
of the Atlantic.

A vast wardrobe
of scattered luggage,
across the sandy floor.
Small ghostly forms
play chasey among
the tattered decks.

Vaporous Rhymes 
Nightfall unbalanced 
Dance around a ceremony fire 
Thorns cursed vaporous 
Body dieth slumber 
Death-note written 
Alacrity descends 
Consciousness unbound 
Screams below halted no sound 
Graves unsettling 
Life soon ending 
Bomb fires burning 
Sacrifices, unforgiving 
Buried with the dead 
Emptiness is limitless 
Rendered to the darkness 
Sins unhinged 
Tormented below 
Name erased from the books
